Bug Description:
Mounting horse. Often, one of two things will happen.
1 - The game ignores the mount command, having to repeatedly press it often still being ignored I walk around and switch to the other side of the horse and discover the same issue, eventually the character will mount but until several repeated commands to do so, average of about 10. Happens often.
2- Lesser often is the character will walk in place at the horse, camera locks up and no other commands will be accepted (dodge, jump, etc.)
I confirm it always happens to me too, pg stuck in continuous movement on the spot without the possibility of movement and sometimes it happens that it gets stuck in the 3D model of the horse. To unlock I have to log out to wait for the thralls to return to base camp
Experiencing this as well. It’s definitely new behavior, is it intentional? The tiniest obstacle prevents the player from mounting the horse.
I have also noticed Thralls (pets) trying to occupy the same space as the Horse and sometimes succeeding. So when trying to mount your horse the engine can’t figure out if you want to mount the Horse or your thrall. And the answer is yes… sometimes.
Thanks for the report - I was about to post the same thing. And I know my whole clan is having the same issue. Can confirm this is a persistent and consistent problem.
I’ve seen my char try to mount while standing slightly in front of the horse and fail. It moved to the horses chest, ran in place for a few seconds and stopped. There were no obstacles. The AI is just plotting a straight line path to the center of the horse, which it cannot reach.
Did you know horses instinctively know the size of their body and can automatically navigate around obstacles? The Funcom AI can’t even navigate around the body of the horse to mount it.
